Hi guys,

Yesterday a came across a jQuery plugin that I would like to use in a theme but I didn’t bookmark it

Basically when you hover over an image, it fades in an overlay over the rest of the site leaving just the image being hover visible to highlight it.

Does any one know what plugin this is?

Sorry for the poor description haha

Cheers

Hi graphic_dev,

I think the headings could all do with a bigger bottom margin, looks like they are sitting right on top of the text at the moment.

Good work though!

Thanks for the replies guys.

Your advice is very important to me. Also, Keliah that article is excellent! Thanks for linking up this is something I really need to work on

Ok i’ve added a lot to this now.

Please can you give me your feedback before I start coding it.

Made some more updates guys.

Would appreciate your feedback again. Im really stuck with what more I can change now. Any ideas?

Skyscraper Theme

Cheers!

I agree with graphic_dev

Its good though, we all have to start somewhere and this is how you will learn.

For a start I would look at the logo. Look for a more interesting font. Search Font Squirrel on and you will find a load of really nice free fonts for commercial use. I would also change the tree as this looks very basic almost like clip art.

Secondly I would also find another font for the headings. Again try font squirrel.

And the last bit of advice I will give you for the moment, is to left align the list links in the footer. It looks weird having text furthest to the right left aligned if the two sections two sections on the left are centered. It needs to be consistent.

Hope this helps for the time being.

Keep trying and when you make changes I will give you more tips

Big big big improvement!

Slider looks much better now with that background. Updated colour scheme just looks better and more interesting in general.

Padding does seem good now to me.

I think you could be right though, It does need something a little extra but its hard to say what.

Keep it up though this is getting somewhere now!

Quite an old photo now (note to self, take new ones) but this is where I work:

I do like the idea of a big gaming mouse mat =)
